News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

idk, i've seen screenshots and modlogs where mods ban people from every .ml community for diagreeing with them
IIRC that was an automated function that wasn't always intentional. Unfortunately I can't find the thread where I heard that. I believe it had something to do with a specific version of Lemmy though.
I've seen all the screenshots, c/meanwhileongrad is on my server. But many of those incidents have a lot of context that isn't captured by the screenshots, when you look more closely
Then how come it only removes the specific comments that annoy the mods?
The removal of certain comments is intentional and politically motivated and I don't approve. But then when you see people getting banned from like 20 other communities in the modlog due to that one comment, I think that was sometimes unintentional.
Idk, you'd think they would share the script or whatever it is, how come it doesn't happen on non-tankie friendly instances.
